It's my job to vet your claims and call you on them when they present an opportunity for you to recognize how disordered your brain has become.
No, it is your job (to the extent any of us has a "job" here) to comment on events of the day. And the key, most important event of the day is that the "Democratic" party is not looking very democratic. Not only did the VP meet with a foreign leader independently of the president, she then came out with her own statement of the meeting, while the actual president looked like he was not in the picture.

We are in an extremely tenuous condition due to your political nightmare-come-true. We have, in the last few days, had Russian and Chinese bombers nearing our airspace, together.

No big deal. But it is. It is something different, something that occurred into an extremely weak position of the United States, and a further weakening by the political behavior within the Democrat party. If you can't see this, you're clueless.

Because you made a claim of a pattern yet could produce only one example.

I didn't claim any pattern. I pointed out clearly inappropriate and concerning behavior. We have a situation that suggests a coup may have occurred, although some are calling it a "coronation". For Harris to make a SINGLE signification incursion into presidential territory is entirely inappropriate and indefensible. You should not be defending behavior that is entirely contrary to one of the most fundamental elements of our Constitution, which is that we have one president at a time.

You consistently close your eyes to actions of your beloved party that you, yourself, would find unsettling had the same actions occurred within the Republican party. You do this time and again.

You have become cognitively interlocked with your political interest, and it appears to have left you unable to be objective during what can only be called a crisis.


We cannot simply operate with a mindless president for the next six months.

We must have some kind of intervention, not a mere bridge to a new president. By law, Harris must be that bridge and it should occur by virtue of the 25th Amendment, creating an unequivocal transfer of power.

I wish you would think back to the day of Kennedy's murder. When LBJ carefully arranged for Jackie Kennedy to stand beside him during a fake swearing-in ceremony aboard AF1 to make clear to the world a transfer of power had occurred because our president was dead. LBJ realized, if nothing else, during the danger of the times, that there could be no question who was calling the shots.

RIGHT NOW, in the United States, it is unclear who is calling the shots. Is it our senile president? Or our intellectually incompetent Vice President?

This is a question that doesn't need supporting arguments. It is apparent, and it stands alone in importance. You don't get more examples.

As to your snide personal attacks, I at least try to make my case. You try to avoid the obvious truth in support of your partisan commitment, and that is your struggle, not mine: I know what I believe without reliance on guidance from partisan leadership.
